They were employed in the campaign two years ago when John Steen cut Frazier’s majority down to 17,000. Then Langer sliced his margin of con- trol down to 5,000 and Townley is lashed. into fury again, He renews his threats of boycott. The league leaders have preached and prac- ticed boycott for four years. Four years ago secretly and under cover and for the last two years arrogantly and viciously. North Dakota is still within the union of these United States and is not going to be intimidated by the ravings of a bankrupt socialist, a con- victed seditionist and a political craven. The federal law on boycott is still ‘operative. :The ‘boycott has been working secretly and openly, forthe last:four years. It has quickened ‘the!dppesition to Townley because all free born men rise instinctively when foul threats against their freedom are made. j Every independent anti-Townley newspaper has long felt the keen edge of legalized boycott. Some state papers are now but memories. The Brintonized boycott forced many fearless editors to close up shop and seek a living elsewhere where they could retain unsullied their ideals. Other newspaper men more fortunately situ- ated have been able to stay on the firing line and fight the boycott of the Townley-Brinton-Lemke triumvirate, responsible for the most sinister thrust at a free press that has ever been ac- complished outside of Russia. Merchants and bankers throughout North Da- kota have felt the pressure of the Townley boy- cott. They faced it courageously four and two years ago, They stand resolutely against it today as this bankrupt socialist and leering seditionist utters his threats against the peace and safety of the commonwealth. / : The merchants of North Dakota were first singled out for attack by the Beach bankrupt. Stores were established to break down their fear- less stand against socialism and rule of the soviet. The bankers have stood loyally by them in their fight for free and open markets. Like news- paper owners, some of the merchants have liqui- dated and left rather than tolerate the campaign of abuse and hate conducted by this Beach op- portunist. Others more fortunate by reason of location have remained on the firing line to com- bat the greatest curse that ever afflicted a state. Townley failing to enlist many country bankers in his army of abuse, conceived the bank act, as Brinton conceived thg newspaper bill, to drive op- —_— . ponents to the wall who honestly differed with them as,to what was the best economic policy for North Dakota. fie oe Townley scooped up millions of public money from the various localities, chiefly in those places which! refused to support; him and diverted it to the big money centers of Chicago, Minneapolis and St. Paul. Could there be a more vicious boycott on the country bankers who were extending the limit of credit to farmers and merchants until the crops were harvested? Verily Townley both utters and practices boy- cott. He practices it “within the law,” through the passage of soviet measures that bristle with class favoritism. He utters it unbridled by law, because he seems to be the law in North Dakota and will be the law until God fearing Americaps in North Dakota rise in their wrath and sweep him and his minions from the seats of the mighty. North Dakota has struggled under a class boy- cott for four years] Hampered as they have been, the people are putting up the greatest campaign since statehood. Every women who feels the same desire for the maintenance of free institu- tions and to protect the homes and the schools against socialism is working shoulder to shoulder with the men. Their energy is an inspiration to the men who have been struggling with this in- sidious propaganda during the last four years. Townley continues his abuse of the business- men who refuse to follow him in his orgy of com- munism and anarchy. They honestly differ with * HOW’S YOUR PHOBIA? Are you the sort of person who can’t ride backward in a train or street car? Have you, in fact, a dread of a railway journey of any sort? Ha, you’ve been classified ‘as a\nut by Cdwin L. Ash, noted authority on neurasthenics. You are a siderophobe! All sorts of funny little panicky feelings, ob- stinate ways of doing things and quirks in your mental makeup have been classified, cataloged and labeled. Ifyou jump into bed and pull the covers over our head when the thunder roars, you are suffering from batophobia, If you are uncomfortable alone in a broad, open space, you have agoraphobia, and, if a stuffy, crowded room makes you want to jump out the window, you are a claustrophobe. So don’t be lonely, bored, scared or foolish any more. Dignify your emotions with a stately title and maybe you can get a ‘name for being the wisest person in your block. FATHER OF BASEBALL In the clamor and the noise arising from an- other world baseball series in October, stop a moment and think of this— In another October, 96 years ago, there was born a chlid who lived to find himself called “The Father of Baseball.” He was Henry Chadwick, baseball writer of another generation, but credit- ed with doing so much toward establishing base- ball on its present foundation that he earned the sobriquet that stuck to af to his death. : In a little plot, in, Greenwood Cemetery, in Brooklyn, N. Y., is a slab that tries to tell his story to future generations of fans. The marble is surmounted by a huge baseball. There’s crossed bats on one side, and a jmask. Chadwick died on April 20, 1906, but the good Chadwick did was not interred with his bones. If he was the father of baseball, his child lives—the game proves it. {j). President Wilson will enter the fight and help win the League of Nations’ “great and solemn referendum,” is the announcement read by Gov- ernor Cok. “Deliver.me from my friends,” cried the Governor in despair.

AMERICANISM ABOVE PARTY There has been a great response all over Mon- tana to the call of Senator Myers, and a recent meeting in Helena organized ‘the Democratic Club of Montana to rid the party of its incubus. At this meeting Senator Myers said: Montana must be saved. The Demo- cratic Party of Montana must be saved. All the traditions of the American Nation, all the principles of Washington and Jefferson, are trembling in the balance and it remains for the Democrats of this State to save all that we love in Montana. We Democrats must put Americanism above party, espe- cially at this time when the party namé has been stolen. We Democrats stand for sound principles; we care nothing for party name. There is no cause for a hypocrti¢al leader to come from outside the State to combine with the radical labor leaders here to con- coct a scheme. for the delivery of “our State to forces ‘of bharchy and revolutién. There is a clear call in that declaration for the Democrats of Minnesota, too. Are they not also ready to put Americanism above party? It is true, the situation in Minnesota is not quite iden- tical with that in Montana, but the principle is the same. Here the real Republicans, aided by real Democrats, succeeded in smashing the scheme of the Nonpartisan League and the radical labor leaders te capture the party organization and name its ticket! But the attempt is now renewed in another direction . The same radical forces, led by Socialists and sovieteers, are now attempt- ing to seize the State Government by the election of a mongrel ticket, whose candidates sail under various appellations—Republican, Democratic, In- dependent, Farmer-Labor and so on. Is it not the duty cf all Republicans and Demo- crats who put American:-m abcve party to unite for the defeat of this cou~iracy to bolshevize Minnesota? Is therc not a Senator Myers among the Democrats of Minnesota 'to make the duty this bankrupt socialist. and convicted seditionist. of the hour clear to them?

Journal. RS. ROSE E.

Tuttle, of 293 Congress Street, Portland, Maine, recently. “No one will ever know how I suf- fered,” she said. “My stomach was 30 disordered 1 had to be very careful about what I ate, Potatoes and other starchy foods would completely upset me. ‘Frequently after meals 1 would have terrible pains in my stomach, my breath would get short, and I wouid have a depressed and uneasy feeling about my heart. Often I was troubled with pains under my shoulder blades and I frequently had bilious attacks. “IT also suffered with rheumatism, and this, together with my other troubles, was simply wrecking mv health. I fel weak, nervous and run- down all the time, and seemed to be losing weight and strength every day. My sleep was poor, and often I was in such misery I wouldn't close my eye3 all night long. “Before I finished my first bottle of Tanlac I realized I had at last found the right medicine. My condi- tion improved daily as I continued taking, Tanlac, my appetite picked up and I'was soon eating three hearty meals every day without suffering in the least afterwards. That horrible indigestion has disappehred,.I am no longer nervous, I sleep soundly all night and feel splendidly all during the day.. My strength has been in- creased until I can now do all my housework:with ease. I am praising Tanlac every opportunity -I have.” Tanlac is{sold in Bismarck by Jos Breslow, in-Driscoll by N. D. and H.

Because she de- feated him for county superintendent of schools in Barnes county. 1 wish there was a law in this state that! when Neil Macdonald is defeated fair-| ly and squarely he be compelled to, take his defeat like a man. Shorn of Powers “You all know how Miss Nielson has been shorn of her powers. How rec- ords have been taken from _her.} Which do you prefer? That your daughter’s or your son’s certificates be signed by Miss Minnie Neilson or an unfrocked minister. “It is necessary for the women to protect the schools against the inva- sion of socalism. Restore power tak- put her indomintable spirit back into the schools where it belongs.” Vicious Misrepresentations Mrs. Bruce told of the vicious mis- representations being made by the opposite. Women, she declared, are being advised to sign their ballots. “IT caution you women,” she said, | “not to sign your ballots for if you do that. will nullify them. Don’t be misled by false advisers. It is not necessary to sign the ballot, in fact your vote will not count if you sign the ballg.” Mrs. Bruce will give a few days be- fore election to the campaign of Miss Neilson.

Dak., To the Honorable City Commission of the City of Bismarck, and to the People of the City of Bismarck: For more than two years last past the City of Bismarck and the Water Company have been, engagéd in litigation, that up to date has cost in excess of $30,000. ‘All of this.Jitigation is still in process of further litigation and more is, from time to time being added. Soon another $30,000 will have been It is the opinion of the Water Company that in the end both the Water Company and the people will. be, losers if this policy of long’ drawnout, expensive, litigation is to be continued. Why not stop it now?, And what is all this trouble about anyhow? The City says it wants to buy the waterworks from the Com- pany. The Water Company answers that it is willing to sell to the City and name its price. The City answers that the prige is too “Now to take care of just such a condition it is provided in charter and contract between the City of Bismarck and the Water- works Company that in such case the matter shall be sumbitted to arbitration. The City to name one arbitrator and the Water Company to name one, and these two to name a third. If the two shall not agree on the third arbitrator, then he is to be named by the Judge of the U. S.
